The move, which axes some 10% of Dish’s workforce, will help the second-largest U.S. satellite TV provider cut down on salary costs.

Dish swung to a quarterly loss of $158.5 million last quarter, down from a year-earlier profit of $319.1 million, hurt by rising customer acquisition costs as the company continued to bleed subscribers.

Hall told the Denver Post, which first reported the job cuts, that the store closures would happen over a period of time as their individual leases ended.

Shares of Dish ticked down about 2% Tuesday to $37.11 in recent trade. They remain up nearly 29% from 12 months ago.
